First Post- Selling my first home, need tips.

I have been following along here but I don't feel I know enough to chime in as I haven't started in the real estate investing yet. I have been watching Bigger Pockets for a long time on YouTube. It has inspired me SO much! So much that I'm moving from SD to TX. I'm leaving behind my parents, sister, BIL, and little nephews. It's a big deal but I'm so excited. The real estate market is really good there from what I can see. I have a degree in Occupational Therapy so I'm going to that for a bit along with real estate investing. I want to be fully into real estate investing as my FT job within 5-10 years. 

What is holding me back is, I'm trying to sell my house in SD and I'm not getting a lot of interest. It's more of a renters market here. I know I could rent it out right away and there is a local gal who is really wonderful with property management. I NEED to SELL this house though and not rent it out. I need that money to start my new life in TX. I really want it to sell fast so my son can start the school year at his new school. 

Do you have any tips for how to sell it quick? I've done Zillow, Trulia, Craigslist, Facebook, and flyers. Is there a place in these forums that I can post it for sale? I've done SO many updates to the house, new flooring, new furnace, new central air, weatherized. This would be a great place someone could rent out from afar. I could set them up with the property managment place that is local. It's a great neighborhood across from the school. I would post the zillow link here but I don't know if that's against the rules. 

Basically my questions are..

What tips do you have for selling my home quickly?

Is it against the rules or can I post it for sale within the forums and where would I do that?

Thanks for your help. 

Jen
